How to implement DMAIC & DMADV processes into the textile industry:
Implementation of six sigma is in textile manufacturing, with the aim to reduce the cost, wastage and get higher production and good quality of the textile. Six Sigma initiatives aim at reduction of process variations and defects.
By trying to implement Six sigma into the textile industry. Various tools can be applied under Six Sigma concept for measuring and analysis of variations in a process. Six Sigma is a proven method for improving profits by pursuing perfection. Six Sigma, or 6s, is a disciplined use of applied science that improves profits by creating and systematically replicating breakthrough improvements.
Six Sigma Process Models:
For DMAIC is used to improving existing process and DMADV is used to
employed the new products.
1. DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control)
2. DMADV (Define, Measure, Analyze. Design, Verify)
1. DMAIC:
I. Define
This is the first phase of the process improvement effort.
During this phase, the six sigma project is defined.
During this phase plan for the garment production and collect the information
pertaining to the customer requirements.
II. Measure
The team identifies the key internal processes that influence critical to
quality (CTQ) and measure the garment defects.
III. Analyze
The team discovers the causes for defects, they identify the key variables
which cause the defect or which are most likely to cost are create a process
variations.
IV. Improve
The team identifies maximum permissible ranges of the key variables and
proposes a system for measuring deviations of the variables. The team...
